No,

Looks like a drug dealers car .  Black looses all the detail on a wheel. You may as well stick a dustbin lid on them.

You did ask .....!!

They were diamond cut before, and as anyone that has owned diamond cut wheels will know, they chip and go milky and cost a fortune to repair.

The photos don't really do it justice, I really like the effect.

As an aside, I'm certainly not a drug dealer, more their nemesis.

To be fair all X5s are drug dealers cases so the wheels aren't going to make a difference

I think it looks alright I just feel sorry for the mini driver.

Sorry fella. But not my cup of tea.... :noexpression:
Ive got the same wheels as you, and they need a bit of a refurb, but instead of having them diamond cut, I was just going to get them powder coated in alloy colour all over...
Everone to there own... :)
